Description

From the Writer and Director of The Orator – O Le Tulafale, One Thousand
Ropes is a story of a father reconnecting with his youngest daughter and
together putting to rest the ghosts that haunt them.

She arrives vulnerable: badly beaten and heavily pregnant. He struggles with
the inner temptation and the encouragement from the men in his life, to take
revenge in the way he knows best on one hand and on the other, to build the new
family and companionship so desperately missing from his life.

One Thousand Ropes is a deeply moving film about connections, redemption and
new beginnings.Critic Reviews

“Samoan New Zealand director Tusi Tamasese's second feature, One
Thousand Ropes, resonates with the same quiet power and restraint of his
award-winning debut, The Orator.”
– New Zealand Herald

“One of the most intelligent films to come out of New Zealand and
Samoa.”
– Flicks.co.nz

“It combines melancholy domestic drama with spiritual and supernatural
elements, and while the latter could have been more robustly developed, a quiet
power accumulates nonetheless.”
– Hollywood Reporter
